For hiking and exercising my favorite water bottle is the Intak water bottle by Thermos. You can beat the pop top IMO. For every day use I have always used Klean Kanteen... simple and functional. I pretty much stick with my favorites and thus haven't bought any new water bottles in quite in some time. That changed a couple weeks ago though, when I saw some the above beauties at Resuseit. I am in loooove...... Who says being green is a sacrifice? I mean really, I will gladly sacrifice an ugly … [Read more...]
Intak Water Bottle by Thermos
I have always had a favorite water bottle and his name is Mr. Klean Kanteen. But step aside Klean because you may have been replaced.

BPA free, safe plastic but … [Read more...]

The PET disposable bottles are probably the worst thing we could use. They are single use and add to the waste stream. They also have leaching … [Read more...]
Stainless Steel Sippy Cups
Plastic Cups for soooo yesterday! Nowadays it is easy to buy kids drinking cups without having to resort to cheap plastic just because you are afraid of breakage. Newer stainless cups do not break and they also do not have the chemical nasties and toxins that plastic does.
